There are tons of engineering jobs that are not startup risky or government boring. You can be an engineer in retail, medical, insurance, finance, etc. there are tons of stable engineering jobs working for companies that don’t deliver a dig

I think you might be missing the point of their frustration. Lots of companies do not put their code in public repositories, granted I understand the perspective of violating a license, but the point is if you don’t want your code used by s

I don’t hear about it anymore, and if anything usage has likely increased.

How? An individual can block numbers, block or deactivate social media, if those dont work law enforcement of civil litigation are likely available options. I actively practice antisocial online behaviors. I disable game chats and rarely us

The difficult part is I am not convinced anything someone says can violate someone else's right to exist. In the past the solution was to focus on promoting personal mental health, someone who commits bodily harm as a result of somethi

Honestly, I think it depends on where you are looking. Over in the Midwest we have had trouble finding SDEs, maybe it's because in my area starting pay is in that 65-80k range and I know alot of grads shoot for the startup/FAANG 1

Idk, I feel like Telegram is viewed more like a subscription based twitter feed. It’s more about pushed updates to groups of people then communication between loved ones. (It’s also used a lot as a support medium, although I wouldn’t consid

Exactly! Plus I know it might sound crazy, but US influence doesn’t involve invading other countries or even threatening them into some form of submission. If The whole world joined Warsaw and the US felt isolated I guarantee you wouldn’t s

That’s true, but you also can’t discount the fact that people choose to live in expensive urban areas like New York, after only sure fire way to get away from the problem would be to move.

I don’t think they were stating it as in they had examples, they were extrapolating from other left leaning activities like BLM vs Insurrection. Similar aggressive approaches but only insurrection gets attention as bad.

I am young so take my answer with a grain of salt but a digital watch number is instantly recognizable to me, more so then an analog watch.

I think discussion chains like this showcase a lot of misunderstandings around how twitter fundamentally works. Most companies, figures, games, movies, etc have twitter accounts to convey information or offer support. If anything Musks ambi

See but this is a big flaw in the way most people view free speech. No one wants to hear it, but some views considered extreme or “bad” are considered “bad” based on your point of view. Currently the majority of our culture feels acting on

I’m not sure about the comparison between a town square and the internet. BLM protests and Jan 6th, are great examples of town squares where civility and rule of law are thrown out the window like a free open platform on the internet would

Agreed. I think the premise is sound. I feel like the US needs to incorporate a new right, similar to the separation of church and state but instead focused on the separation of politics and companies. I have no idea how politics would be d

I agree. I can understand that the article is focused on pointing out that everyone seems status in some way or another, but I think it is fair to say that somethings shouldn’t really be considered status. Working for money, fame, influence

Yes. Office politics can exist anywhere, the problem is people. But unions can cause more of it, just like Diversity & Inclusion, or minority incentive programs. The point is things get in the way of the work.

1000% agree. Unions promote individual rights at the expense of the customer, product, and company. In reality they facilitate corruption and union rights over individual rights. I understand everyone wants to feel valued at their company,

I think better examples would be the lack of motion control, unlike computers the bulk of content experienced on TVs expects to run at specific refresh rates. Innovations like OLED which offer instantaneous response rates cause issue for th

I don’t think commute should factor into this discussion at all. People choose to live in expensive urban cities, why not move to a cheaper place? The point of opportunity is that everyone has it, but people that take advantage of it and su

By this logic what is wrong with all those people getting up early and driving to work, don’t they know some of us don’t have a job! Where do they get off?

This reminds me of Judge Dredd, does this open up the same pitfalls?

I am of the same mind, I found value in pairing on small tasks, or maybe a code review/training, but generally I find it promotes 2 negative concepts. 1. That all developers can do/produce the same results. 2. That some people bec

They sell the old games, they are not free. All of there games are overpriced and never go on sale, probably because it seems like they only have a handful of games. I don’t think it’s fair to say valve is late to the party, if anything the

The Ukrainian president was open to discussing a ceasefire and dialog, sounds like Russia isn’t interested at this time.

Yes but at least the US had probable cause to go into Iraq. The world was pretty much behind that decision. We were attacked, civilians were attacked directly, none of that conflict would have occurred if Iraq or neighboring countries stopp

Honestly if I were to do it over again, I'd go for 1080p, or maybe 1440p for a bigger monitor. When it comes to optimizing graphics usage more frames ovee resolution tends to be where I gravitate. At the same time I don't think I
